Calling All Foodies: It’s Almost Restaurant Week In Washington, D.C.

Each summer and winter, Metropolitan Washington Restaurant Week lets you take advantage of special prices at hundreds of eateries all over the DMV—that’s D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, to the uninitiated.

From August 28 to September 3, 2023, you’ll have a chance to try $25, $40 or $55 brunch, lunch or dinner prix fixe menu deals. Search for restaurants by name, city, state (or district, as D.C. still isn’t a state at the moment), neighborhood, or type of cuisine through the website, linked above. You can also sort options according to meal (brunch, lunch, or dinner), and whether or not you’d prefer delivery, outdoor dining or a wine or cocktail pairing. Here’s everything you need to know, and which places will be participating this time around.
